Oh wow that is quite psychedelic there
Now witness their attempts to fly from tree to tree. Notice they do not so much fly as plummet.

DO NOT PRESS OK BUTTON IN THE GAME SETTINGS AFTER COPYPASTING HYBRID CODE. It may turn off blob-shadows and reset some other parameters. If it happened, then close the game (if it's launched) and re-copypast the code above to the end of your variables again and save.


so just paste the wall of text you give us at the end even tho there might be multiple lines of it?

I think it runs it in order so if its at the end it'll run that setting last. I could be wrong.




I am, however, experiancing a problem with these settings. I click on matchmaking and it just sits there with the circle like its trying to load it.

yes. Sc2 will rearrange them automatically when you start it.

I like everything about this except it's very bright. is there a way to make the terrain just a touch darker? I'm guessing it's something to do with the lightingLevel variable?

The feature of these Hybrid settings that lighting turned OFF at all. There is no lighting in the game right now, as no shadows can be.

To have darker game you can use low shaders, i.e. GraphicsOptionShaderDetail=1 change to 0, but it will turn off all the features from Hybrid settings, eg force fields, warping models, etc

Is it possible to have medium terrain and have the units look like what they actually look like with medium shaders?

Set everything to medium in game settings and add lighting=0.

Hi,

First of all thanks a lot, I love these graphic settings as a player, and for my few viewers.
BUT, I experience an overall FPS decrease compared to my usual settings which are : everything on LOW +
GraphicsOptionModelQuality=2
lowqualitymodels=0
useLowqualitymodels=0
frameratecap=90
frameratecapGlue=60


So I would like to know if there is a way to keep your hybrid settings but gain back some FPS in late game while streaming.

Thanks again.
DaRa
PS : the bitdepth=16 deny streaming capture for me.

Can you try these steps?

Remove lighting=0 from your variables.txt
Clear cache from ProgramData / BlizzardEntertainment / StarCraft II (this folder might be hidden, google how to show hidden folders)
Turn everything in game settings to Low. Close the game.
Turn everything in game settings to Ultra. Close the game.
Turn everything in game settings to Low again. Close the game.
Make "Scan and Repair" in Battle.Net launcher (under SC2 logo Options > Scan and Repair)
Copypast Hybrid options to the end of your variables.txt
Launch the Preloader map (you may find it in the Arcade)


+ install latest non-beta video-card drivers

That doesn't seem to work. Everything is not as bright as with these settings.

Have you tried it? Standard medium settings are same as Hybrid ones, except some stuff is same as on low, like foliage or physics

Used some selfmade Hybrids, but these are ridiculously good!
Will use 'em from now on (Terran EU).
Thank you

I followed carefully all the steps, but it's pretty much the same than before.
Still, I have no actual problem with these settings, it's just a bit too greedy for computer sadly enough.

Thanks anyways, I'll keep testing it for some days.
